And perhaps your "couple of times in your 20s" is insufficient when compared to my 30+ years of experience working in those types of environments?
What you fail to understand is that I don't consider the working conditions in those places (including those "horrible" conditions described at Amazon) as "bad." I just consider it labor. Sweaty, uncomfortable, sore-muscle labor.
The "Avid cyclist" who couldn't cut it physically is straight-up B.S. IMO. Think about it. An avid cyclist who can't do the work implies that all those who
can do the work at an Amazon warehouse (and there are apparently quite a few) are more fit than an "avid cyclist." Right. It's much easier for me to believe that 1) that person wasn't an "avid cyclist," or 2) they were just whining. And anybody who works on their feet knows that blisters don't come from too much walking, they come from ill-fitting shoes.

Furthermore, I reported on that video with no criticism because I could not come up with a critique that didn't come across as fanboyish hostility.

I didn't read your report on the video. There was no point. The video didn't inspire any further analysis.
